Frequently asked questions

How do I forecast cash collections?+

Bucket receivables by age, apply a historical collection probability to each (e.g. 97% current, 90% 1–30 days, 70% 31–60, 40% 61–90+), and sum the weighted amounts.

Why are older invoices less likely to be collected?+

Collection probability drops sharply with age — disputes harden, contacts leave, and customers prioritise newer obligations. Invoices past 90 days often need escalation or write-off.
